2 billion vs. 19 million: They were off by two orders of magnitude.

The difference represents the amount by which these egotistical elites over-inflate their own ego.

I may have “watched” 6 minutes, I was flipping channels and when I got to this show I had to go barf and it may have taken me that long before I got back to continue my surfing :-)

“Organizers for Live Earth, backed by former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, were hoping live broadcasts on cable television and the Internet would reach up to 2 billion people”

Yeah right. They never hoped for 2 billion they BRAGGED about 2 billion. Love how the pre-concert sentiment changed after the debacle.

"At least six minutes"?

That little time qualifies as an NBC viewer? Watch 1 song performed ..and I'm outta here!

I demand TV Guide, and my remote be remade.
I was watching "Ice Road Truckers",(a GREAT show BTW), on History channel.
But, I meant to be watching "Live Earth".
The listings in TV Guide were soo confusing to read!
I couldn't understand the numbers on my remote control!!
I wasn't counted in the ratings for "Live Earth"!!! WAAAAAAAA!!! WAAAAA!!! THE INJUSTICE!!!

I taped it. Duran Duran were good and so were the Police. Then they had that dope Kanye West come out and rap during “Message in a Bottle”. What lame sh!t that was.

Melissa Ethrige was a true believer zealot who introduced the AlGore. Leonard DiCaprio introduced the AlGore. Multiple performers introduced the AlGore as he made multiple appearances on stage to talk global warming blah blah blah
I even saw some clowns playing in Antarctica

But I taped it and zipped past all that rubbish

“AlGore as he made multiple appearances on stage to talk global warming “

That is when the bathroom lines went from a 1 hour wait to a 2 hour wait.

I flipped on Bravo and caught maybe 2 minutes on several occasions. The music sucked, then they had has beens or newbie punks on there telling me to change my light bulbs (which I did 8 years ago when it wasn’t cool).

Rebels without a cause!
